Okay, let's get to it, eh?! I had so much fun with this kit. If you've been following me for awhile, you'll know that this kit will come in quite handy for me. My boy goes to college, out of state, in New York. The other thing, we own an airplane...more on that in a smidge.

I couldn't wait to make my own Flight Journal. With the airplane we love to take local trips to the San Juan Islands but this year I'll be doing a bit more flying outside of the state.

I decorated the cover of the journal with cardstock from the Blush Mix + Snow Layering pack. See that airmail strip on the left? I trimmed it off of the kit's packagaing :)

The airplane die is the perfect size for the cover. I backed it with Sea Mix Layering Paper. The sentiment has been stamped in Strawberry + Navy.

Here's a glamor shot of the airplane. It was recently painted, it turned out awesome. It's a RV-9 that Darin built himself. I love going flying!

Next up is a fun shaker luggage tag! (sorry about the photog, the luggage tag was being squirrely)

I'm sure TSA is going to love this. I stamped the Destination New York in Soft Pool. I layered the Strawberry + Navy inks on top of the New York image. I used the packaging trim on my panel and filled the the tag with sequins. I stitched the tag closed with gold metallic thread.

Here's my final project for today, I whipped up a card:

I used the Luggage Tag Die but trimmed it down to just one tag and used it on my card. The Irregular Grid Bold Prints is the base of my tag and the sentiment is from this month's kit. I die cut the airplane in solid black. I topped off the tag with Airmail Twine. This will be perfect for my personal pilot (wink).

Before you go, I did want to share my card that was up on the Hero Arts blog this weekend. It's a great project to show the versatility of the kit. I happened to find some fun (old) cupcake acetate and made a shaker tag.

All your projects are just wonderful, Amy...and I love the sky in your airplane photo. I have been on too many planes to really enjoy flying anymore, but I am glad you do and that you can! Happy Tuesday!

shut upppppppppp, this was totally PERFECT for you wasn't it?? Darin built his own PLANE?? wow! and another favorite: "Destination: Paradise" ... that's my destination too lol! Thank you for all these ideas, and for sharing! <3

Amy, your tags and journal are adorable! I just love shaker cards and the more I see of this kit, the more I would love to win one. Thank you so much for sharing your talents and ideas with us AND for being a part of this fun hop and giveaway.

I like your travel journal and tag! What an awesome travel kit! This will be perfect for my current projects! I am making two albums for my niece that will be travelling to Germany, France, Switzerland, and Northern Italy! One album is for pictures and memorabilia. The other album is for journaling! Thanks for the opportunity to win this kit!

I love how you think!! Using the fabulous strip off the packaging really added to both of those projects! Love the birthday shaker to show how versatile the kit really is,too! And I am very envious of your Gorgeous airplane! Matches your journal too!!

All your projects were inspiring. I've flown a "home made" plane before (3 seater... I felt nauseous afterwards, I was the one flying it. SMH.) I always say anyone can fly the plane it's taking off and landing that requires the most skill. ;). Back to your creations, my favorite was the tag. And way to go on the "no waste" policy by utilizing the packaging. I do love the "Air Mail" look on the flight journal.TFS! Would be awesome to win the kit!

Hi Amy ~ Your creations are fantastic and perfect for your family! This kit is incredibly versatile (I've seen so many different and wonderful creations on this hop) and has a little something for everyone. Thanks so much for sharing and for the inspiration. And from a native New Yorker please tell your son....Welcome to New York!! :-)

Forgot to mention I love the plane! My dad was a bombarder in the second world war so he knew how to fly a plane. He's 92 and on a walker but if he was able, he would have loved to go up in your plane. Thanks for showing us your plane!

Such nice projects! Love that luggage tag! The flying journal is a great idea and I like the planes you cut out and backed with some color. Thanks for sharing a photo of your plane. It looks pretty darn nice.
